This three-bedroom mid-terrace Victorian cottage is typical of the building stock of this age in Timperley. Whilst functional the third bedroom on the first floor was too small and this family of four were sharing one bathroom. Calderpeel Architects understood that whilst one could add another bedroom to this house with a simple loft conversion this would not address the family’s needs and would undoubtedly create an imbalance between the amount of living and bed space. A loft conversion has created a new double bedroom space with an ensuite shower room housed within a new rear dormer construction. The high ceilings on the first floor allowed us to drop the floor in the loft to create the extra head height in this space without detrimentally affecting the ceiling height in the new bedroom and shower room on the first floor. The ceiling in these rooms have coffers that take the ceiling back up to original heights against the external walls to maintain the existing window head heights.

This project is a remodel of and extension to a modest suburban semi detached property. The scheme involved a complete remodel of the existing building, integrating existing spaces with the newly created spaces for living, dining and cooking. A keen cook, an important aspect of the brief was to incorporate a substantial back kitchen to service the main kitchen for entertaining during larger gatherings. Keen to express a clear distinction between the old and the new, with a fondness of industrial details, the client embraced the proposal to expose structural elements and keep to a minimal material palette. Initially daunted by the prospect of substantial home improvement works, yet faced with the dilemma of being unable to find a property that met their needs in a locality in which they wanted to continue to live, Group D's management of the project has enabled the client to remain in an area they love in a home that serves their needs.

In Kooperation mit dem Architekturbüro Frenzel und Frenzel GmbH in Buxtehude wurde ein ehemaliger Obsthof von 1830 mit einem Nebengebäude, das als Stall und Schuppen genutzt wurde, zu einem Ferienhof mit einzelnen Appartements umgenutzt. Die Gebäude in Jork (im Alten Land) wurden dafür kernsaniert, die Dächer neu eingedeckt und das Fachwerk repariert und mit den alten Ziegeln neu ausgemauert. Die Gebäude sind Bestandteil eines größeren Denkmalschutzensembles entlang der Kleinen Seite.

This project was developed in strong collaboration with the homes’ stylish owner, Sally Small, who engaged us to design a split-level home extension that could push the limits in terms of permissible built form controls and capitalise on every inch of available floor space. The alterations and additions have been designed to be both sympathetic to the owners’ strong interior aesthetic and the compact nature of the site, which was constrained by a 7.5 metre street frontage. Builder: Reliant Constructions. Interiors & Joinery Design: Sally Small, home owner.
